MAUI

Having had our fill of the city lights in Oahu, we headed for the classic beauty of Maui.

This was the view we were greeted with as we arrived by ferry. Whales breached the water and clear skies allowed us to spend the first few days just chilling.

We happened to arrive in the middle of whale season and managed to spot whales from the highway as well as the obligatory boat trip.

The highlight od Maui was definetly the hike down to the cliffs where the biggest waves in the world can be seen roughly 20 days in a year, ´JAWS´. Most people I am told stop at the wrong spot but having seen it many times in films i knew this wasnt the right place. I dragged my poor girlfriend 2 miles down a pineapple field to find the spot.
